This weapon is a fast-firing, low-accuracy shooter. It has a steampunk-style look, similar to its cousin, the Splash-o-matic. Due to its high attack power, it excels in short range combat. It comes in a set with Squid Beakons and the Killer Wail.

Data

The ink consumption of 0.8% allows players to fire 125 shots before needing to refill the ink supply.

When initially firing the weapon in kid form, the first bullet takes 3 frames to come out.

When firing from squid form, the first bullet takes 8 frames to come out.

When firing continuously, it has a fire rate of 5 frames between bullets.

When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.8 units per frame.

After firing, there is a 20 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.

If a bullet is in the air for more than 6 frames after being fired, it loses 1.1875 damage per frame until it reaches 19 damage at frame 22.

Bullets have a radius of 2 units.

The angle its shots can deviate while on the ground is 12 degrees.

The angle its shots can deviate while in the air is 18 degrees.

The outer reticle immediately expands after jumping. After 25 frames, the outer reticle will start shrinking, and will finish shrinking after 70 frames.

The Sploosh-o-matic starts off having a 4% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle.

This chance increases by 2% per shot, and maximizes at a 40% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle. Meaning that it takes 18 shots to reach minimum accuracy.

When jumping, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle is immediately set to 40%.

When not shooting, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle decreases by 1% per frame, if the chance is not already at the minimum. Meaning that it takes 36 frames to reach maximum accuracy.

Bullets initially travel at a rate of 20 units per frame for 2 frames, having an effective range of 40 units.

After that, the bullet's velocity is set to 17.82 units if the bullet's velocity is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it falls to the ground.

Paint droplets occur every 60 units.

The frequency at which paint drips from a bullet occurs at a rate of 1.4 droplets per shot.

There are a total of 5 different droplet patterns that can be created while firing this weapon.

Droplets that occur within 11 units of the player have a radius of 22 units, and a width of 11.5 units.

These droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1.2 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.4 if they fell from a height below 30 units.

Droplets that occur when they travel past 200 units of the player have a radius of 17 units.

All other paint droplets have a radius of 12 units.

Droplets that are far from the player and all other droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.2 if they fell from a height below 30 units.

Etymology

Sploosh-o-matic is derived from Sploosh, a word similar to Splash, and Automatic. The -o-matic suffix is also a common, cliché naming convention for technological gadgets.

ボールドマーカー bōrudo mākā is in reference to the partly pen-based appearance of the Sploosh-o-matic. The name is also to contrast it with the Splash-o-matic. The highly accurate Splash-o-matic is named after a sharp marker pen, while the Sploosh-o-matic with its wide, cone-shaped muzzle is more akin to a bold marker pen.
